Notify people returning from lunch or who were away from the office at the time of the problem.
Building Security: Theft and Insurance
Any suspected theft, no matter how small, should be reported to the Management Office immediately.
The Woodbridge Police should be notified immediately and a report should be filed. Police need to be
kept informed of any thefts in the building to establish a pattern of the thefts and to effectively
complete the investigation.
The insurance policy for Metro Corporate Campus does not cover cars or other personal belongings
of tenants or employees. Personal property insurance is the responsibility of each tenant.

Tenant’s vendor only if the vendor supplies a Certificate of Insurance to the Management Company at least
24 hours prior to the removal.
If you wish to obtain Certificate of Insurance requirements please contact the Management Office.
Building Security: Security For Motorists
If someone tries to take your car, give it up. Your life is more important than your car.
Beware of staged accidents. Drive to a well lighted area, such as a police station, before getting out of
your car.
Always lock your car whenever you leave it and glance under the car and into the back seat before
re-entering.
Avoid parking in areas which are largely deserted or where visibility is poor.
Park in a lighted area at night or near sunset.
Be alert at garages where attendants park and return cars.
Be especially alert in parking lots. Glance between, around and under the cars you pass and be
aware of people in or around nearby cars.
If a parking lot is unattended, or if your travel route is deserted, consider carrying a cellular telephone
to report that you are safely in your car or that you have arrived safely at your destination.
If you can’t start your car and a stranger offers help, consider the possibility that the stranger may
have disabled your car in order to make you vulnerable. Be alert without letting it show.
Keep car doors locked while driving. Do not lower windows more than two or three inches, particularly
while passing through unsafe or unknown areas.
Keep a map of the area within reach.
Building Security: Security For Pedestrians
If your lifestyle includes foot travel within an urban environment, or running or walking for physical exercise,
follow these tips to reduce your vulnerability.
Avoid walking alone after dark; stay close to the street and away from doorways, buildings and alleys.
In residential areas, avoid parked cars and shrubbery.
Avoid sparsely populated areas, stick to areas with heavier pedestrian traffic.
Do not establish a regular travel pattern. Even if you walk to work, vary the times and routes.
Consider carrying a small tear gas or non-lethal aerosol chemical, if such a device is legal in your
area.
Carry a police-type whistle if you must walk alone at night.
Be wary in self-service elevators. If you don’t like the looks of another passenger, don’t enter. When
in the elevator, stand near the alarm button. Don’t enter the elevators going to the basement when
you want to go up.
If robbed, give the thief your money or valuables. Even if the thief appears unarmed, the risk you run
by resisting far outweighs the value of your possession.
If followed on the street, cross to the other side, change directions, or go to an occupied place.
A woman should carry a police whistle or protective spray container in the hand opposite her purse
hand. Do not carry these items in your purse.
Avoid entering an isolated area alone after dark.
If a threatening situation develops in public, a scream is a strong defense.
Building Security: Solicitation
For your safety and quiet enjoyment, solicitation is prohibited on the premises.
To report an incident, contact the Management Office immediately and give us a brief description of the
solicitor.
We appreciate your cooperation in helping us to secure the building and locate the violator.
Building Services: Building Signage and Directory
No sign, advertisement or notice referring to Tenant, including any sign/or furnishing which can be seen on
the exterior of the Premises, shall be inscribed, painted, affixed or otherwise displayed on any part of the
exterior or the interior of the Office Complex, except on the directories and the doors of offices and such
other areas as are designated by Landlord, and then only in such place, number, size, color and style as

Landlord is exhibited or installed by Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to remove the same at Tenant’s
expense.

misconstrued as garbage. If you have special cleaning needs, such as carpet shampooing, then contact
the Building Management office at 732-549-7676. Special cleaning services can be arranged at tenant

What To Do During An Earthquake
If You are in a Building
Note: Stay where you are! Wait for instructions through the Public Address System. Do not exit the building
unless it is unsafe to remain inside.
1. Stay calm and encourage others to do the same.
2. Do not stand in office building doorways, instead “duck, cover and hold.” Take cover by ducking
under a desk, table or the like. Hold on until the movement has stopped.
3. Move away from windows and glass partitions, bookshelves, file cabinets, wall hangings and
suspended objects.
4. Do not use elevators.
5. Do not take cover in emergency stairwell exits.
6. Be prepared for aftershocks and power failures.
Emergency Procedures: After Quake Guidelines
What To Do After An Earthquake
If safe, conduct a thorough inspection of your suite to locate any trapped or injured persons, dangerous or
shorting electrical circuits, damaged and leaking water pipes, unstable walls and ceilings. Notify building
management.
If You Must Evacuate the Building
1. Post a message indicating where you can be found.
2. If safe, gather whatever supplies possible from your desk and lunchroom.
Articles to bring with you:
your wallet or purse
silverware or a drinking cup
canned/dry foods
blankets or clothing
flashlight, radio and batteries
important papers and cash
pens, paper, etc.
bottled water, soft drinks
If You Locate an Injured Person
1. If you are qualified to administer first aid, do so. If you are not qualified, wait for qualified assistance
to arrive.
2. Write down the person’s name and location.
3. Do not remove identification (wallets, purses, etc.) from injured or unconscious persons.
After Quake Guidelines (continued)
Helpful Hints
Paper towels from the rest room used with office supply articles such as tape, can provide bandages
for the wounded.
Many offices use bottled water. If possible, carefully try to secure water bottles after an earthquake for
future use.
Emergency water may be obtained from a water heater, toilet tanks, melted ice cubs and canned
vegetables.
It is likely that the power will go out after a major earthquake. First eat refrigerated foods before
cookies, candy bars and other non-perishables.
If blankets are needed, consider pulling down the drapes or even using carpeting for warmth.
Fire hoses can be used should you need rope.
If you have ice or ice packs, place them in doubled up plastic bags.
Emergency Procedures: Emergency Action Plan Team
A building safety program can not be run by the Management Office alone. We require assistance and
wholehearted cooperation of all of the tenants and their employees. The Emergency Action Plan Team is a
necessary and required part of Avison’s building safety program. Besides members of your staff, the
Emergency Action Plan Team may include attorneys, consultants and specialists in your industry.

Training assigned personnel
Notifier: In the event of a fire, this individual would:
Immediately call the Fire Department
Meet the Fire Department on arrival
Direct the Fire Department to the scene of the fire
Salvage Squad Members: Squad members must be familiar with the proper techniques of:
Salvaging, moving, cleaning and drying of stock and equipment in order to minimize damage as much
as possible.
Search Units: Search unit members should be familiar with hallways, restrooms, false ceilings and all other
public locations.
Designate office personnel to search private and semi-private areas.
Search unit to inspect public areas.
Evacuation Unit: This unit should consist of key management personnel trained in the details of evacuation.
Inform employees of evacuation procedures as well as procedures for re-entering the building once
authorities have given clearance to do so.
Emergency Procedures: Evacuation Procedures

Emergency Procedures: Elevator Malfunction
If you are in the elevator and it stops for no apparent reason, remember to remain calm. Pressing the
emergency button within the cab will alert Building Management that the elevator is malfunctioning. The
cab number will be identified, and so too, the specific floor on which it is stuck. The Guard will establish
two-way communication with elevators occupants until help has arrived.
In the event of a power outage, elevators will continue to operate using our emergency power generator.
Should an outage occur, elevator lights will remain on, but the car itself will temporarily cease moving. Each
elevator will automatically return to the lobby, their doors will open, and they will remain inoperable until the
power has been restored.
IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, ELEVATORS MUST NOT BE USED FOR EVACUATION. USE THE
STAIRWELLS.

Important notes
If you call 911 as a result of a medical emergency, please be sure also to notify building management with
your name, callback number, and location so that security may swiftly guide the paramedics to your exact
location.
If the audible alarm within the building sounds, please do not call the Management Office, unless you have
something specific to report. Building Management is aware of the noise, as well as the source of the
alarm, whether it’s false or a legitimate emergency. Please keep the telephone lines clear so that
Management may to attend to the situation as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Emergency Procedures: Fire and Life Safety
Important Points to Remember:
1. As smoke and heat rise, keep low to the ground or crawl when traveling through smoke. The lower air
will be cooler and easier to breathe.
2. If caught in smoke, take short breaths. Breathe through your nose.
3. Do not break windows to vent smoke. Instead, fresh air will rush in and fuel the fire.
4. Do not open hot doors. Before opening any door, touch it near the bottom, moving upward to feel if it
is hot. A fire on the other side will blast through the slightest opening with tremendous force and the
fumes are dangerous.
5. Do not return for personal items if ordered to evacuate.
Should You Discover a Fire:
1. Isolate the fire. Evacuate the room. Remove anyone in immediate danger and close doors. This will
slow down the spread of fire.
2. Call the Fire Department (911): do not assume someone else has called. Give the following
information:
Name
Address
Severity of situation
Exact location, if possible.
3. Alert others, activate fire alarm.
4. Notify the Management Office
5. Contact you Emergency Action Team Coordinator, Notifier of Alternates. Follow their guidance.
6. If safe to do so, check:
Handicapped persons (blind, hearing-impaired, impaired mobility)
Persons wearing headsets (dictation, telephone, etc.)
Guests, delivery personnel, etc., who would not be aware of what to do
Conference rooms, copy rooms, construction areas
Rest rooms.
7. Do not leave area unless instructed by authorities.
8. Use stairwells. Do not use elevators.
9. Account for each other. Stay with your group.
If You Attempt to Extinguish a Small Fire Yourself:
1. Call the Fire Department (911) or Management Office.
2. Don’t fight the fire alone! Get help.
3. If properly trained and knowledgeable, use fire fighting equipment to contain fire until professional
help arrives. If you are in doubt, do not use it.
4. Use only ABC type fire extinguishers on electrical fires. Do not use water or water type extinguishers
on these fires.
The “3 P’S” (when using a Fire Extinguisher)
Pull the pin (or release lock latch)
Point the nozzle at the base of the fire
Press the handle.
(Sweep from side to side at base of fire)
Emergency Procedures: Flooding
In the event of a flood that may cause damage to tenant property or affect the normal operation of the
building, designated tenant representatives will be contacted by Building Management personnel,
regardless of the time of day.
The first priority is to ensure that no personal injury occurs as the result of a flood. The second priority is to
discover the cause and prevent or minimize additional flooding.
Once the flooding has been contained, clean-up operations will be commenced. Tenants will need to
contact their insurance carrier for any damage to their property.
Emergency Procedures: Homeland Security
Metro Corporate Campus recommends that each tenant have an emergency action plan in place to help
their employees prepare for, and react quickly to, a regional emergency, including terrorist attacks. Click on

Emergency Procedures: Pandemic Preparedness
What you Need to Know
An influenza (flu) pandemic is a worldwide outbreak of flu disease that occurs when a new type of influenza
virus appears that people have not been exposed to before (or have not been exposed to in a long time).
The pandemic virus can cause serious illness because people do not have immunity to the new virus.
Pandemics are different from seasonal outbreaks of influenza that we see every year. Seasonal influenza is
caused by influenza virus types to which people have already been exposed. Its impact on society is less
severe than a pandemic, and influenza vaccines (flu shots and nasal-spray vaccine) are available to help
prevent widespread illness from seasonal flu.
Influenza pandemics are different from many of the other major public health and health care threats facing
our country and the world. A pandemic will last much longer than most flu outbreaks and may include
"waves" of influenza activity that last 6-8 weeks separated by months. The number of health care workers
and first responders able to work may be reduced. Public health officials will not know how severe a
pandemic will be until it begins.
Importance and Benefits of Being Prepared
The effects of a pandemic can be lessened if you prepare ahead of time. Preparing for a disaster will help
bring peace of mind and confidence to deal with a pandemic.
When a pandemic starts, everyone around the world could be at risk. The United States has been working
closely with other countries and the World Health Organization (WHO) to strengthen systems to detect
outbreaks of influenza that might cause a pandemic.
A pandemic would touch every aspect of society, so every part of society must begin to prepare. All have
roles in the event of a pandemic. Federal, state, tribal, and local governments are developing, improving,
and testing their plans for an influenza pandemic. Businesses, schools, universities, and other faith-based
and community organizations are also preparing plans.
As you begin your individual or family planning, you may want to review your state's planning efforts and
those of your local public health and emergency preparedness officials. State plans and other planning
information can be found at www.pandemicflu.gov.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and other federal agencies are providing funding,
advice, and other support to your state. The federal government will provide up-to-date information and
guidance to the public if an influenza pandemic unfolds.
Pandemic Flu Resources
There are many publicly available resources in place to help communities, companies, and individuals plan
for a possible pandemic flu outbreak. A few of the most useful sites are linked below:
Pandemicflu.gov
This is the official U.S. Government site for information on pandemic and avian influenza. The material on
this site is organized by topic for easy reference.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
